The Lotus Clean water care consists of two main components. Lotus Clean Basic und Lotus Clean Shock.
Lotus Clean Basic encapsulates oils and impurities and makes them filterable. Lotus Clean Shock is a new type of effective oxidant. Together they form a highly effective cleaning system for the whirlpool water.
Lotus Clean Basic
- Consists of a special mixture of minerals and salts.
- It encapsulates pollutants that are present in the water.
- The encapsulation consists of a gel that bacteria cannot penetrate.
- The reproduction of bacteria is stopped.
- As a result of the gel formation, the pollutants increase and can be filtered out and removed by the filters.
- By removing even the smallest suspended particles, you obtain crystal clear water.
Further advantages when using Lotus Clean Basic
- It is not an oxidation process. It does not produce any harmful waste products such as chloramines.
- During the oxidation of dirt particles smallest fragments remain in the water because they are not oxidizable. They fit through the filter pores and are not filtered out. They accumulate them and the water becomes turbid. Lotus Clean Basic encapsulates these ultra-small suspended particles. They can be filtered out. The water remains crystal clear.
- Lotus Clean Basic works at any pH value.
- The water can remain in the whirlpool for 6 - 12 months because no chemical, harmful waste products are formed. chlorine: Water change every two months necessary (too much cyanuric acid, too much chloramine)
- Lotus Clean Basic is 100% skin-friendly.
- It is not corrosive and does not destroy plastics.
- Nothing can happen in case of an overdosage.
- It is not a toxic substance and it cannot cause any damage. It is not a biocide.
- It can be stored for at least 3 years.
- It does not form chloramines that are harmful to health.
- It works at any pH value.
- Lotus Clean Shock is a selective oxidizing agent: It does not react with polysaccharides, can penetrate biofilms and destroy bacteria in the biofilms in a targeted manner.
- Bacteria cannot become resistant to Lotus Clean Shock.
- It is up to 30 times stronger than chlorine.
- It does not harm the skin or skin cells: Lotus Clean Shock cannot penetrate the skin cell barrier.
- Lotus Clean Shock is hardly degraded by the heat of the water and is therefore effective longer than chlorine in water.
- It is a very strong oxidizing agent. It oxidizes the pollutants 100%, i.e. residual substances in the water are only harmless carbon dioxide, salts and oxygen.
- The active ingredient in Lotus Clean Shock is approved for the disinfection of drinking water.
- Deodorising properties, i.e. odours and flavours in the water, e.g. from phenols, algae or their decomposition products are converted or are not produced at all.
- It can be combined with chlorine. The performance of both substances is thereby increased. Interesting for problem treatments.
- Lotus Clean Shock reliably destroys bacteria, viruses, legionella, algae, fungi and mould.
Active principle
Lotus Clean Shock works on the basis of chlorine dioxide. It is not chlorine. It consists of one chlorine atom and two oxygen atoms.
Oxygen atoms are very strong oxidants: only they react. Therefore it is a chlorine free disinfection based on oxygen.
One chlorine atom remains and combines in the water to sodium chloride (simple common salt).
Chlorine dioxide is a water-soluble gas that is explosive from 10% air content. It can therefore not be pre-produced and transported. (At least not in sufficiently high concentration). For this reason Lotus Clean Shock consists of two types of chlorine, which permanently produce chlorine dioxide in water until the chlorine is completely used up. Due to this innovation there is always a sufficiently large amount of chlorine dioxide in the water.
- Lotus Clean Basic can, if deposits are present and the dosage is higher, lie down on the deposits in the pipes and encapsulate them. This could lead to the formation of flakes. Lotus Clean Shock dissolves deposits in the pipes.
- Lotus Clean Shock is a selective oxidizing agent, therefore not optimally suited for oils, fats and cosmetics. Lotus Clean Basic encapsulates these substances and they can be disposed of through the filters.
- Lotus Clean Shock is only effective if there is a permanent minimum of 0.2 mg/l in the water. If the concentration falls to zero, a lot of bacteria can form in a short time. If Lotus Clean Basic is in the water, the bacteria formation is suppressed.
- Because Lotus Clean Basic is not an oxidizing agent, it builds up very slowly. The bacteria defence is maintained for several weeks even if Lotus Clean Shock is not dosed.
Both substances complement each other in an ideal way.
We provide water care instructions for the dosage.
In case of problems, however, both substances can be dosed higher.
